dirt, water, or other foreign objects can fall into above the
same below burner unit;
3. loosen scres “D” (Figure 15-3) and move up the spark
generator “A” (Figure 15-3);
4. disconnect the two wires “D” (Figure 15-4) from the
ignition electrodes and the wire “E” (Figure 15-4) from the
fl ame detection electrode;
5. rotate the air inlet silencer “B” (Figure 15-4) in the up
direction;
6. pull in the left direction “C” (Figure 15-4) the air inlet
silencer and remove it from the fan;
7. unscrew nut “H” (Figure 15-5). Take care attention to the
gasket between nut “H” (Figure 15-5) and the gas valve.
8. take away the spring “A” as per Figure 15-5. Help

15-7;
14. use a vacuum cleaner to remove any unburned residue
from the combustion chamber “H” in Figure 15-7;
15. using the same vacuum cleaner, clean the surfaces of
the burner and around the electrodes;
WARNING!!!
while performing the next step,
